Do you really want to reduce these awards our servicemen/women earn, sometimes at the cost of their lives or limbs, to just pretty pieces of ribbon to which the wearer may or may not be entitled...at the risk of a little public scorn for abusing them?Cowboy Blobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13880979084783592543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-1146504902934339182006-05-01T13:35:00.000-04:002006-05-01T13:35:00.000-04:00Hear!
